Implants

Dental implants are the best tooth replacement system available anywhere in the world! We are very proud to offer both implant placement and implant restoration, right here, at Craigieburn Dental Gallery.

Implants are an ideal option for anyone who has lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury, dental decay, or some other reason. While high-tech in nature, dental implants are actually more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework, since implants do not rely on neighboring teeth for support.

Dental implants are so natural-looking and feeling, you may forget you ever lost a tooth. They are custom made and can be matched to the colour of your other teeth. Under proper conditions and with diligent home maintenance, implants can last a very long time. Implants are placed in a short single appointment, and we even offer mild sedation for anyone feeling a little nervous.
